Dolly's new album, Rockstar, will be released on November 17, 2023. The album includes nine original songs and 21 covers of classic rock songs, featuring guest appearances from some of the biggest rock legends and today's hottest artists! The album will be available on 2xCD, 4xLP, digital download, and streaming. There are currently seven announced variants of the LP release with various covers and vinyl colors. Links to pre-order all release variants will be listed at the end of this post!

Across the album's 30 tracks are appearances from Sting, Steven Tyler, Stevie Nicks, Debbie Harry, Miley Cyrus, P!nk, Lizzo, and many more! The biggest collaboration on the album may be the reunion of surviving Beatles members Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr on a cover of "Let It Be". Notably missing is the original song "Rockin'" which Dolly performed at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony last fall.

Dolly's official store is also offering box sets for the CD, clear vinyl, and clear red vinyl variants which include a t-shirt and a sticker housed in an exclusive road case box.

The lead single, "World on Fire", will be released Thursday, May 11, and will be performed live for the first time at the ACM Awards the same day!
